Reaction sintered silicon nitride as a coating for carbon-carbon compositesYamaki, Yoshio Robert January 1984 (has links)
Reaction sintered silicon nitride (RSSN) was studied as a substitute coating material on the carbon-carbon material (RCC) presently used as a heat shield on the space shuttle, and on advanced carbon-carbon (ACC), a later development. On RCC, RSSN showed potential in a 538°C (1000°F) screening test in which silicon carbide coated material exhibits its highest oxidation rate; RSSN afforded less protection to ACC because of a larger thermal expansion mismatch. Organosilicon densification and metallic silicon sealing methods were studied as means of further increasing the oxidation resistance of the coating, and some improvement was noted when these methods were employed. / Master of Science

Inverse estimation methodology for the analysis of aeroheating and thermal protection system dataMahzari, Milad 13 January 2014 (has links)
Thermal Protection System (TPS) is required to shield an atmospheric entry vehicle against the high surface heating environment experienced during hypersonic flight. There are significant uncertainties in the tools and models currently used for the prediction of entry aeroheating and TPS material thermal response. These uncertainties can be reduced using experimental data. Analysis of TPS ground and flight data has been traditionally performed in a direct fashion. Direct analyses center upon comparison of the computational model predictions to data. Qualitative conclusions about model validity may be drawn based on this comparison and a limited number of model parameters may be iteratively adjusted to obtain a better match between predictions and data. The goal of this thesis is to develop a more rigorous methodology for the estimation of surface heating and TPS material response using inverse estimation theory. Built on theoretical developments made in related fields, this methodology enables the estimation of uncertainties in both the aeroheating environment and material properties from experimental temperature data. Unlike direct methods, the methodology developed here is capable of estimating a large number of independent parameters simultaneously and reconstructing the time-dependent surface heating profile in an automated fashion. This methodology is applied to flight data obtained from thermocouples embedded in the Mars Pathfinder and Mars Science Laboratory entry vehicle heatshields.

Three dimensional finite element ablative thermal response analysis applied to heatshield penetration designDec, John A. 06 April 2010 (has links)
Heatshield design and analysis has traditionally been a decoupled process, the designer creates the geometry generally without knowledge about how the design variables affect the thermostructural response or how the system will perform under off nominal conditions. Heatshield thermal and structural response analyses are generally performed as separate tasks where the analysts size their respective components and feedback their results to the designer who is left to interpret them. The analysts are generally unable to provide guidance in terms of how the design variables can be modified to meet geometric constraints and not exceed the thermal or structural design specifications. In general, the thermal response analysis of ablative thermal protection systems has traditionally been performed using a one-dimensional finite difference calculation. The structural analyses are generally one, two, or three-dimensional finite element calculations.
In this dissertation, the governing differential equations for ablative thermal response are solved in three-dimensions using the finite element method. Darcy' Law is used to model the flow of pyrolysis gas through the ablative material. The three-dimensional governing differential equations for Darcy flow are solved using the finite element method as well. Additionally, the equations for linear elasticity are solved by the finite element method for the thermal stress using temperatures directly from the thermal response calculations.
This dissertation also links the analysis of thermal protection systems to their design. The link to design comes from understanding the variation in the thermostructural response over the range of the design variables. Material property sensitivities are performed and an optimum design is determined based on a deterministic analysis minimizing the design specification of bondline temperature subject to appropriate constraints. A Monte Carlo simulation is performed on the optimum design to determine the probability of exceeding the design specifications. The design methodology is demonstrated on the Orion Crew Exploration Vehicle's compression pad design.
